THE NE.W YORKER was beaten by No Sir, who's owned and trained by :Mary Hirsch. Although loads of excuses were made for him, Pompoon ought to have been able to carry 130 pounds and give No Sir, whose form is moderate, at least fourteen pounds and a beating-that is, if he's going to win The Futurity, and there are those who still say he is. S INCE George Phillips, trainer of the Maemere and Furst horses, was suspended because Maeriel was found to be full of French postcards or something, William Furst has been handling his wife's stable; he has a temporary licence and everything. So the Honourable George hippety-hopped madl y across the paddock the other afternoon to see Mr. Furst saddle a horse. He was disappointed. Mr. Furst, like so many other millionaire trainers, saddles his horses by remote control. T HE fat, lazy days at Saratoga are over, and we must get down to the serious business of racing. Aque- duct should have a first-class meeting; at least it will run for fifteen days in- stead of the customary fortnight, and the big stables will be preparing their best horses for Belmont Park, which will open on September 17th. I fancy that you've noticed the new contraption for photographing the fin- ish. As a matter of fact, I don't sup- pose you could have missed it, for it's a camera suspended from a cable, like an overhead trolley, directly above the fin- ish line. If you m lIst know, it's not the Eye in the Sky, the movie camera which takes pictures of close finishes, but an- other experiment to prove that cameras don't favor the horse farthest from the rails. Horseplayers, it seems, need a lot of convincing. O DDS AND EVENS: The parade of the outside men singing that good old Saratoga spiritual, "Oh, Lord, Didn't It Rain!" . . .
